this surely rocks. somehow i never thought in my wildest dreams that the classics will look so good with decals.

Walk into the parking lot of the Taj Land's End, and you come face-to-face with the beast!! Subtle it is not. Great work by Sam and his team to think out of the box and come up with something to steal the show.

Elf's expression here pretty much summarised the looks on the faces of all the visitors that day!

Decent enough stuff I'd say.

No, this is not what they sound like in person. But the mic on my phone could not handle the power!

Thanks so much Kasli.
Boys, kasli donated the car out of love and trust to us. We promised him that we would love it and take care of it, but we pimped it up instead

and he's been a great sport about it, though I suppose inside he is

about his emotional decision to let us have a free hand.

We worked many nights at kasli's garage over this car. I was personally involved in the entire project.
He has a bunch of people that love and maintain his many cars and they were horrified at what we were doing and practically refused to help us "rapists". I understood the meaning of car love from their attitude.

Kasli thanks for the trust and thanks for the car.

One more thing, Kasli came like a tourist to the show and took a few pictures of his own car and went away with minimal fuss. Sir, I salute your modesty.

Love the ride.... however 1 more addition that I think that would make it a killer:

The interiors... Please change them to pearl white and orange combo.. and put in 2 plush individuals seats up front instead of the 3 seat combo in the front... Damn why did I sell the conti

captainsokhi · 30th October 2006, 12:24

WOOOW that is just awesome.....
Mind Blowing.

Great work Sam, hats off.
and yes, thanks Kasli for the car.

ballkey · 30th October 2006, 12:24

That looks like Chip Foose's work. Love those white tyre sidewalls and flames.

And Congratulations(Commisserations?) to Mr.Kasli. Hope you get to keep the audio gear

Sam, this is just fabulous! Oh boy, this has taken my breath away. Is this what you have been hinting at for the last few months?

In my mind, just two things remain to be done:

1. Name the beast!
2. Start a country-wide tour, Hyderabad included!

Cheers,
Naveen

Sam Kapasi · 30th October 2006, 13:34

OK. Let's name her. I am open to suggestions. Keep them coming boys. To know more about the car click here. Let's have a fun pimpy JBL type name.

ballkey · 30th October 2006, 14:00

Names:
Poseidon - Greek god of horses, sea
Loki - Norse god of fire (god of tricks too).
Jabberwocky - mythical dragon, may rhyme with JBL

and finally,
Kareena - for the Fanta orange luscious ... bodywork.

Sam Kapasi · 30th October 2006, 14:07

hmmm Loki is a name I like very much. Thanks ballkey.

This will go on the list. JBLoki

Keep them coming guys. Thanks.
